I hope by now, from reading this blog or scrolling through my IG or Pinterest, that you understand that I am a braid lover. Completely head over heels! The brighter the better too! They’ve been such a part of my life since I was a child, from the tender age of 15, only one other person on one occasion has braided my hair for me. And I always feel more confident with those woven strands dangling down my back. I’ll love them even more, when all the length is my own!

Pettiest Peeves #2
A few months ago, I did a little cleanse of some of my daily irritations in a blog post called Pettiest Peeves. Well, I’m at it again because there is an infinite amount of crap in this world that irritates me. If you’re reading this in a bad mood, use it to get some of that negativity off your chest!

Twist Fail: Last Night A Beanie Saved My Life
This is my first official twisting of my hair since I shaved it all off in November 2016. I say official, because I have twisted it as a way to section my hair before braiding a couple of times. But this was the first time it was the intended style. Although it took me a little getting used to, I really liked it! I liked how it felt to run my hand through my hair. And it also felt great knowing that this protective style was going to keep my hair moisturised and well looked after for at least a couple…

Holy Grail
Last Updated: 9 April 2021 The reason why anyone becomes a product junkie, in my opinion, is because you’re looking for the elusive Holy Grail of products. The one that you know works time and time again without fail. The one you tell your friends and family about. And the one you force on your friends and family because they didn’t listen to you and you need them to know how great it is. Their hair and skin deserves the same happiness as yours. The Holy Grail however is elusive. And unless you’re lucky to get it right on your…
End Of The Bottle Review: Carol’s Daughter Hair Milk Cleansing Conditioner
One of the things I told myself when I started this blog and shaved all my hair off was to not to be afraid to use different products, to trial as much as I could and feed my curiosity. It’s a good thing that I enjoy it so much as I’m always excited to try something new and see how my hair or my kid’s hair reacts. The first use of this was a bit of a disaster. I put my littlest baby in the bath, opened the conditioner ready to go and put it on the radiator while the…
